A British inquiry has heard of harsh beatings and sexual assaults of
girls at an Adelaide orphanage run by Catholic nuns in the 1950s. A former child migrant has told a UK inquiry she was constantly
thrashed by a "brute" of a mother superior at an Adelaide orphanage and
was sexually assaulted there in the early 1950s.
The woman, now aged 79, told the child sex abuse inquiry sitting in London on Friday that her mother was too poor to keep her so at age three she was put into a Catholic orphanage in England
